like Eddy said you're either pressing the spring button or you got a defender too close to you, pressuring your player. Also i feel like its about body orientation just before the shot, if the ball is getting away from you and you still attempt the shot, your striker will do that stupid sliding...

Mat the Cat i was first made aware of the existence of this function by you in this forum. Ever since that i keep trying to perform or do it and it never works for me. When i have a player selected, and the ball is flying in towards him say from a goal kick, i never manage to maneuver him around...

Shaun7 16 goals first season? wow thats incredible... and Blugh I'm pretty sure only Forwads can get the Scoring special ability. Not sure if you have to start out as a Forward, or if you can still get the Star by eventually learning to be a Forward even though you started off as say a CMF. Its...

I do agree, Raul is uselss, no matter where you put him. I really dont like the way he plays in PES. I never got used to him, i cant dribble, run, shoot with him, he cant move. I think he is terrible. Now Nistelrooy, thats a striker, get him the ball inside the box, and he will be trouble!

Its not out in North America, im still waiting for it patiently.

i love playing with Robinho, LOVE rooney. absolutely LOVE Nistelrooy his shots are amazing. I HATE Raul, i can NEVER score with him, i hate the way he moves and shoots!

please do.

screamers all the way!! oh and free kicks, put a beautiful curl on the ball, clear the wall, and let the ball do the rest!

wow, some very good points, and questions you have asked there Rafiky77. I would love to know the answers to them. I haven't done any testing of my own, i just know the basics (completing passes, shots on target, interceptions, and assists).

I still haven't figured out what to do in 1v1 situations in BAL, but thats because my player is terrible, no speed and technique. Though when using a skilled striker, I usually go for the simple kick feint and quick change of direction. That works for me.

Well i would have to say i feel the opposite. I play against a friend offline, and he is a good dribbler, he has good skills with the ball.. he picks barcelona because of Henry, Eto'o and Messi. When i choose to mark either of them (Normal or Aggressive), my friend seems to have an easier time...

Double tap the shoot button, first tap is for the height of the shot, and the second tap makes it a screamer... try it. On the PS3 i double tap square and let off some real serious shots.

Why do you use that method to shoot? Do you feel like you have better control and accuracy over your shots? is it a tactical choice? or just because it looks more realistic (according to you)?

Oh, would've been fun. Thanks sgmullins.

Might be a silly question but I haven't read or seen anything that confirms this so i have to ask. Now i know there is a training mode, but is there a mode within training mode that has drills already set up, such as dribbling drills using the small orange cones, and free kick drills etc...
